Torres Raps 3 Homers Against Miners Sunday, February 12th , 2062 Armando Torres went on an explosive hitting spree against the 3M Miners at Chesapeake College Fields, launching a trio of blasts to help the Coca-Cola Splash win, 19-1. The first baseman finished 4-for-4 with 5 runs scored and 4 runs batted in. "It was just one of those days," Torres said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball." 3M skipper José Chacón said Torres was "locked-in." "We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him." Armando Torres hit a two-run home run off Graham Haynes in the 1st, walked in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Graham Haynes in the 5th, walked in the 5th, singled in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Dan Haden in the 8th. This season, Torres is swinging the bat at a .364 pace. He has hit 22 home runs and scored 52 times, while driving in 56. His on-base percentage is .520 and he has played in 35 games. |
